Yes. I got a double comment, as long as you didn't write another one, I go the latest comment. I can recommend a couple of things to you, I mostly only have time for my school reading when I'm at school, but I also read a lot of the political/socio-economic books that Ian reads. But I'm not really sure you owning a list of anarcho-communist books would be an ideal thing, so I'm not going to recommend any of those. I'm really into H.P Lovecraft, and all of his stories are available online, for free. I'm reading the Song of Ice and Fire books (GoT) at the moment. I also reread like all of LOTR books because they're awesome. I had a class on women's fiction, I really loved/hated the "Magic Toy Shop", I think you'd like that. Also, I don't know if you like the victorian period, but you can read a whole bunch of victorian travel literature online for free. Some of it is really good and exciting, even though it's incredibly sexist, racist, and imperialistic, but that was the era (this might be good for him because it's a mixture of fact and fiction). Other than that, I don't have much more to offer in terms of reading, although I did hear that the Divergent series was good. I'm sorry to hear your friends didn't do so well, but university can be a stressful time. I have a friend who is a second semester senior because she had to take a year off for mental health reasons. It seems like a lot of people get overwhelmed or start to feel unmotivated. It must be particularly difficult in the midst of political turmoil. You guys should know though, if you want to become attorneys and go to law school in the U.S, the job market is completely over saturated and law schools don't prepare you for work as an attorney, which is why so many people are that have law degrees aren't getting jobs. That's why, if I do go to law school, I'm going to do public work for 10 years (it erases your university debts and then you will be getting job experience that will help you get a job at a private firm so you can actually make money). I'm just letting you know so you can make the best decision. I know you're a good student and that you can be very determined, but you should have this information too if you want to succeed in this path. Ian doesn't like reading fiction either, but I've gotten him to like everything form adventure time, to anime, to bad horror films. I think if you give this Bahadir guy some stuff to watch or read that will capture his imagination as well as his "logical" side, you should be well off. I would recommend Pan's Labyrinth, it's in spanish, but subtitles, and it's got historical fact mixed with some brilliant fantasy and horror.

Yeah, I do think you'll like them. I've been playing sims too, here and there. I made a household that was everyone who I lived with last semester and I made our theme house too. I'm little obsessive I guess. I'm pretty sure I would love WoW, but the last thing I need is yet another game to be addicted to, but I do really want to try it. I've also got into magic the gathering and D&D, because apparently I am just one giant nerd :). Psych is a great show, but I can't bring myself to watch the rest of it. But I've got into Hannibal and Game of Thrones, so at least I have things to watch lol. I'm sure you did great on your finals, you're stupidly good at school. I'm an English major with a writing concentration and a WGS minor. My externship was the the department of labor and industry, specifically with the Bureau of Workers' Compensation, so I got to learn about legal/ lawyer-y things. I think I will probably go to law school (and thus will also be studying for the LSATs this year) and work for the state. Or if not the state, the federal government. Turns out, despite being wholly unpatriotic and a bit of an anarchist, I want to be surrounded by the U.S. Government. Who'd of thought? My second year of college was pretty good, I'm looking forward to next year when I'll get to go abroad with a few of my friends to the U.K. I made a lot more friends, which was good, and finally feel at home there. Ian is doing pretty well, we're 'officially dating' now, so that's nice I guess. I meet his entire family about a month ago because he invited me to a family wedding. I like them and they like me, which is the best thing that could have happened. For like a month though in the spring, before we started 'dating' he want to pursue this girl who sexually assaulted a friend of mine, but he realized that was a terrible idea (to be fair he didn't know that she was a rapist at the time). Sometimes people, Idil, some times people. So where did you end up going to school? How are you liking college?

You're right, it's really good. If you'd like, I think you should check out the band "the eastern sea", you might like them. I'm pretty well, I had an externship this summer with the state government that was pretty interesting. Now that that's over I'm working as a waitress for the rest of the summer. What're you up to lately? If you're interested in another website kinda like this one, you should check out flightrising. You get to raise and breed dragons. It's pretty fun, but maybe you're already heard of it, it's pretty big on tumblr.
